ESTABLISHING a Trade Mark is at once a great advantage
and a great responsibility. It assures the purchaser that
the manufacturer has devoted his best thought to the design-
ing and planning of the goods; that none but the best
materials possible to obtain have been used; that none but
thoroughly skilled and honest workmen, equipped with the
best and most modern tools and machinery, have been
employed, and that the finished product has been sent forth
with the firm belief that it is made as perfectly as all these
precautions can make it. The Trade Mark is proof of the
manufacturer's pride in his product and assures the pur-
chaser that full protection is offered in case any defect
should develop.
It charges the manufacturer with the greater responsibility
of constantly striving to make his product worthy of the name
it bears, so that the purchasers may be fully justified in placing
their confidence in the integrity and quality of the goods.
The Trade Mark Label printed above is placed on the fur-
niture we build and is a sure guarantee of HIGH QUALITY
not only of the furniture on which it is placed, but also a
high quality of service and business practice, a firm deter-
mination to do all things on a broad and equitable business
plan, so that we may ultimately earn not only a fair return
for our effort, but that we may be securely established in
the respect and confidence of our customers, which is more
earnestly desired than profit.
THE GLOBE FURNITURE COMPANY LTD
WATERLOO
HISTORY AND
DEVELOPMENT
THE GLOBE FURNITURE COMPANY,
LIMITED, was founded in the city of Walker-
ville in 1889, and was continued there until 1910,
when the Head Office and Factory was moved to
Waterloo, into the heart of the furniture industry in
Waterloo County, Ontario.
Faithful to the high ideals of the founders of
the business, our every energy has always been
directed toward the building of thoroughly reliable
work.
Realizing that the Roman Catholic Church has
always led in the introduction of Beauty of Design
and Architecture in the building, as well as in the furniture and
fittings of its churches, it has been our hope that we might so
prepare ourselves by a careful study of the requirements of the
Catholic Church that our competence and reliability in the pro-
duction of correctly designed and honestly built furniture, from the
least expensive suitable for the modest Chapel or Mission Church,
to the most elaborate for the largest Churches and Cathedrals,
might become recognized.
How far we ha\e succeeded may be judged by reference to what
we have already done and by investigation into what we are now
doing.
Our hope of receiving an ever-increasing patronage of the Roman
Catholic Church in Canada is founded on a steadfast determination
to give evidence of our sincere appreciation of the confidence we have
thus far enjoyed, and to justly deserve a continuance of that feeling
by faithfully and carefully executing every order entrusted to us.

THIS IS IMPORTANT-READ IT CAREFULLY
TN the building of Altars, Pulpits, Communion Rails, Pews, Con-
fessionals, Vestment Cases, etc., the Art of Designing is just as
essentially the fundamental requisite as in the designing and planning
of the building itself, and we are especially capable of being helpful
to you in designing and planning the furniture for your church,
because in our designing rooms are men who ha\e grown up and
developed in the work, and who are not only inspired by a true
artistic feeling and appreciation of both Gothic and Romanesque
styles, but possess a thorough knowledge of the practical details of
construction, thus enabling them at all times to keep in mind the
element of cost as well as the ideals of beauty and proportion.
Having these facilities, we will gladly prepare sketches and
designs, FREE OF CHARGE and without obligation to you, of
any furniture you may contemplate buying, and thus we will be
able to not only demonstrate our knowledge and ability, but will
save you trouble and expense in having proper designs made.
It is, of course, necessary for us to have a clear understanding of
the style and character of the building in which the furniture is to
be used, and full information as to the size and shape of the floor
space to be occupied by the furnishings, so that we may see that the
designs are drawn in harmony with their surroundings; in keeping
with the style of the building and in proper proportion to their
environment.
Correctness of design does not necessarily increase the cost, and
the degree of satisfaction as frequently depends upon the appropriate-
ness of the design as any other consideration.
Write us fully just what your requirements are, and we shall
at once, without obligation on your part, prepare sketches and esti-
mates and put all the facts before you for your consideration. It
will cost you nothing. It may help you.
THE GLOBE FURNITURE COMPANY LTD
WATERLOO
ALTARS
Great care should be exercised in selecting the Altars, because
they are the most important of all the furnishings and because,
on account of the prominent place they occupy in the church, they
very greatly influence the appearance of the entire interior.
A careful consideration of the Altars illustrated on pages 6, 7,
and 8, and a study of the plans of Sanctuaries shown on this page
and page 5, will enable you to give us a clear understanding of
what your church will need and greatly assist us in preparing designs
and sketches for your consideration.
CHURCH PLANS
Whenever possible, it is best to send the church plans by
mail or express at our expense, so we may be definitely guided in
making up our drawings, and when plans are sent to us for this
purpose, we invariably see that they are returned immediately and
safely.
NO CHARGE FOR MAKING DRAWINGS
You may feel free to discuss your requirements with us and allow
us to make drawings and designs for whatever Church Furniture
you want to consider, because we make no charge for what designs
we make and you will be under no obligation to us.
WHEN STATUES ARE TO BE USED IN ALTARS
When statues are to be used in Altars it is necessary for us to
know height of statue and what Saint is to be represented, so that in
making our designs we can provide proper space in the recess or
niche to receive the statue that is to be used.
The above plan indicates what information is necessary to show us the projjer
height and width to make the Main Altar, the location, size and shape of any
windows in the rear walls of the Sanctuary being especially essential information.

ALTARS—Continued. STUDY THIS PAGE CAREFULLY
Carefully study this
page, and you will be able
to tell us just how the
Sanctuary in your church
is arranged, and what the
sizes are or the measure-
ments of the different
spaces.
A sketch can be drawn
showing its size and where
the Main Altar must
stand.
The sketch can also
show the location of the
Pulpit, and where the
Bishop's Chair and
Priests' Stalls are to be
placed.
The spaces for the Side
Altars should be clearly
shown, and also it should
be indicated if there is a
recess or niche in the wall
where the Side Altars are
to be placed.
Please REMEMBER
that you will be under no
obligation to us by send-
ing us this sketch.
It will only make it
possible for us to get up
designs to send to you for
your examination and
criticism.

PULPITS
The Pulpit should be built to fit and be in harmony
with its surroundings. It should not be too high nor too
low. If the steps are situated where they are seen, they
should be built so as to be an appropriate part of the
Pulpit itself.
A careful observance of these details will add
greatly to the value of the Pulpit as an ornament to the
front of the church, as well as from the standpoint of its
use.
Plans A, B, C, F, I and J show the Pulpit at the
right side of the Sanctuary, as you face it, and are called
Right-Hand Pulpits.
Plans E, H and K are located on the left of the Sanc-
tuary, and are called Left-Hand Pulpits.
The Pulpit may be used on either side, but is usually
on the left side.
In order that we may have a clear understanding of
what is required, it is necessary to send us full information
as to the location in which the Pulpit is to be placed.
Plans A and B show the Pulpit with the base standing
partly on the Nave floor and partly on the steps leading
to the Sanctuary. Plan C shows Pulpit standing on the
floor of Sanctuary. Plans D, E, F, H, I and J show
Pulpit resting on floor of Nave with steps leading down
to either the floor of the Nave or the Sanctuary.

WHAT YOU OUGHT TO TELL US
Select the plan of Pulpit as shown in these pages that comes nearest your idea of what
is wanted, and tell us if the Pulpit is to be right or left hand. Give the necessary measure-
ments. If none of these plans fit your case, make a rough sketch of what you need, being
careful to show where the Pulpit is to stand and give the measurements and the height of
floor of Pulpit from Hoor on which it stands. We must know where the base of Pulpit rests.
If on the steps, as in Plans A and B, we must know the height and width of the steps so the
base of Pulpit may be built to fit. These things are necessary to enable us to make the design
of the Pulpit so it will fit the location where it is to stand.

CONFESSIONALS
General Description and Specifications
Next to the Altars, we consider the Confessional the most essential and most
important part of the furniture of the church, and we have therefore devoted great
care to the designing and planning of our styles, only a few of the large assortment
we have being shown here, and it must be kept in mind that any special or unusual
condition can be easily and satisfactorily met if we are simply given all the facts
and details of just what is required.
GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS
There are certain well-established or fundamental requirements which are
common to all Confessionals, and these are here mentioned so that you may know
that these essential details will receive attention without the necessity of your
specifying each part.
ARRANGEMENT
The perspective illustration of Confessional No. 929 shown on page 28 will
show the general plan or shape of all our Confessionals. It will be seen that the
front of the Priest's compartment is square with the rear wall while the front of
the penitent's compartment, whether double or single, is set back from the face of
the front part of Priest's compartment and is built on an angle. This method of
construction avoids the exceedingly bulky and clumsy appearance of the oblong or
box-shaped style and at the same time provides ample space in both the Priest's
and penitent's compartments.
TOP AND BACK CONSTRUCTION
As will be seen from the illustration of No. 929, all Confessionals, unless other-
wise especially ordered, are made with the top of both the Priest's and penitent's
compartments open, and with panelled back for the Priest's compartment only,
the penitent's compartment being made without panelled back. When the Con-
fessional is to stand in a niche or recess, the end panelling is omitted, or is made
narrow so as to fit against the front edge of the niche or recess.
PANELLING OF PARTITIONS
The panelling between the Priest's and penitent's compartments is always made
with square oblong panels, as will be seen from the illustration of style No. 947 on
page 30, which shows a perspective view of the interior. All styles, of whatever
nature, are in this respect the same.
WICKETS
The partitions between the Priest's and penitent's compartments are made
with wickets provided with strong metal grill or screen, nicely finished and set
into the frame which surrounds the opening in the partition. In all Double Con-
fessionals a sliding door is provided to close the wicket, and can only be opened or
closed from the Priest's compartment. The sliding door is not furnished in Single
Confessionals.
KNEELERS, ARM RESTS AND SEATS
The penitent's compartment is equipped with Kneeler and Arm Rest, so
arranged as to be comfortable and allow ample space for the penitent. The Priest's
compartment is provided with a seat so shaped and arranged as to allow ample space
and comfort. Arm rests are so placed as to afford proper and comfortable support
for the arms.
34
THE GLOBE FURNITURE COMPANY LTD
WATERLOO
FLOORS
A platform floor is provided in the Priest's compartment in all Confessionals.
Floors are NOT necessary in the penitent's compartment and are therefore not
supplied there.
CURTAINS
Curtains are shown in some of the illustrations and are required to be used in
several of the styles of Confessionals, but they are not furnished unless especially
ordered, and at an additional price.
GATES OR DOORS
VVe can supply either gates or doors for either the Priest's or the penitent's
compartment in any style of Confessional regardless of which is shown in the illustra-
tion, or where curtains are shown, and attention is called to the illustration of style
No. 973, which has doors for both compartments. It will be seen from this illustra-
tion that when doors are ordered for the Priest's compartment, the upper panel is
made with a wood grill and without glass in order to allow better ventilation. When
doors are ordered for penitent's compartment, they will be furnished with chipped
glass in the upper panel, as illustrated.
SINGLE CONFESSIONALS, RIGHT OR LEFT HAND
Single Confessionals are made either right hand or left hand. A right-hand
Confessional is where the penitent's compartment is at the right of the Priest.
When the penitent's compartment is at the left of the Priest, it is called a Left-
Hand Confessional.
YOU SHOULD TELL US
What location the Confessional is to occupy. The ground floor plans of Con-
fessionals shown on page 26 are intended to assist you in giving us a clear under-
standing on this point. Will the Confessional stand free on both sides, standing with
the back only against the wall, or will one end, either the right or left, also be
against the wall, as when the Confessional stands in a corner? If the Confessional
is to stand in a niche or recess, we must know, ACCURATELY, the width, the
depth and the height of the recess and the shape or contour of the top of the niche.
If the Confessional is to stand under the gallery, as in Plan D, we must know the
exact height. If there is a window in the recess, tell us the size of it and how high
from the floor and whether the window is to be utilized for ventilating.
If Single Confessional, tell us whether right or left hand.
ENTRANCE TO BUILDING
Be careful to consider how it will be most convenient and best to take the
Confessional into the building, so that we can be sure to have the different parts
made in such a manner and each part of such shape and dimensions as to make it
easy to take it through the doors. GIVE THE SIZE OF THE DOORS through
which the Confessional must be carried.
25
THE GLOBE FURNITURE COMPANY LTD
WATERLOO
^-^
Plan D will help you to
understand what we must
know if the Confessional
to stand under the
gallery or stairs. Be
careful to give the exact
height and whether the
under side of gallery or
stairs is flat, level, or slant-
ing or curved.
\1IM
PLAN A
Plan A shows what information and
measurements are necessary when the
Confessional is to be set in a recess or
niche and where the top is at right angles
with the sides.
PLAN
Plan C shows that when the Confessional stands in a corner
with one end against a wall as well as the back, we must know
the width of the wall space against which the back of the Con-
fessional will stand, and also the width of the wall space at the
end against which the end of the Confessional will set. Also
tell us whether the right- or left-hand end is to go against the
wall, also whether the Confessional is to be single or double.
REMEMBER, if single to say whether it is right hand or
left hand. 26
PLAN B
Plan B indicates what measurements are
very necessary when the Confessional is to stand
in a niche or recess if the top of the recess is not
flat or square as in Plan A. Just a little care
devoted at first to the taking of measurements
and giving us the idea of how the Confessional
is to be situated will greatly HELP US TO
HELP YOU.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
The illustration of the No. 929 Confessional as shown on this page is made in
perspective to show the arrangement or plan of all our Confessionals, and from
this it will be seen that the front of penitent's compartment, in both double as well
as single Confessionals, is set back from the front line of the Priest's compartment,
which feature overcomes the box-like and clumsy effect of the Confessional when
the penitent's compartment is made square with the centre part.

VESTMENT CASES AND WARDROBES
ESSENTIAL PARTS
No single part of the furnishing of the church can be made to be of greater service
and comfort to the Reverend Clergy than the Vestment Cases and Wardrobes, but
in order to secure the highest degree of satisfactory service there are certain details
of dimensions and construction to be observed, which are fundamentally essential,
and without which feature the Vestment Cases and Wardrobes cannot give the
fullest measure of satisfaction.
We herewith set forth some of these very necessary essentials to show that our
years of experience has taught us what is correct and necessary, and so you may
know that the fundamentally essential details will all receive careful attention without
your having to demand them.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATIONS
The materials from which the Vestment Cases and Wardrobes are built are
very carefully selected from thoroughly seasoned and properly kiln-dried stock, and
in the panelling and door construction ample provision is made to allow for the
swelling and shrinking of the panels, which is bound to result from dampness in
the building itself or changes in the atmosphere; the lumber being thoroughly dry
when it is made up, causes it to be very sensitive to dampness, etc.
DRAWERS
The bottoms of the cases are closed so as to exclude dirt, mice and vermin, and
so as to be as nearly dustproof as possible. The large drawers are made to slide
on maple runs, which makes it unnecessary to use rails between the drawers,
enabling us to supply one more drawer than when the rail is used. No locks are
supplied for drawers.
CUPBOARDS
The upper small cupboards are provided with flat key locks, each with two keys.
All locks alike, so that any key will fit any lock. This feature is a great convenience.
WARDROBES
The Wardrobes are intended especially for the Sacristy, where there is not
sufficient room for Vestment Case with Wardrobe included. Note carefully that
wardrobes are made in sections as required.
GENERAL DIMENSIONS
All large drawers are made 4 ft. long inside, 29 in. wide or deep, and 3J^ in.
high, except the bottom drawer, which is 5 in. high. Small drawers vary from 7 in.
to 8 in. wide, are 12 in. deep and 3 in. high.
Small cupboards are 17 in. wide, 13J in. deep and 32 in. high and are supplied
with two adjustable shelves.
Wardrobes are made 22 in. wide, 22 in. deep and 7 ft. high.
IMPORTANT
It is necessary that we know the size of the doors or openings through which
the Vestment Case or Wardrobe must pass in order to reach its proper place.

PEWS
The pews must be of such style as to be in harmony with their surroundings,
he most essential points being the backs and seats, in which parts must be contained
very detail of shape, dimension and construction necessary to their proper use.
The width of the seat, the height of the back, the angle at which the backs and
eats are set together, the height of the seat from the floor, the height of the back of
he pew from the kneeling bench, and last, but not least, the spacing between the
lacks of the pews from one to the other are always very important factors in deter-
tiining the degree of satisfaction to be gained in the use of the Pews.
The proper observance of these many essential things does not necessarily increase
he cost.
The limited space available in this catalogue makes it impossible to fully
xplain and describe these things here, but they will be fully brought out and made
lear, either by our representatives or in our letters, for the information and benefit
if the Reverend Clergy who may be interested.
PEWS ARE NOT KEPT IN STOCK
It is necessary in all cases to allow sufficient time for the Pews to be made up
ifter they have been ordered, because on account of the great variety of conditions
hat it is necessary to meet in order to properly adapt the Pews to each particular
ase, the Pews are not kept in stock. This enables us to fully conform to any
pedal requirement, provided we are informed what is needed.
QUOTING PRICES
In order to enable us to carefully and accurately estimate the cost of the Pews,
t is necessary for us to know how many Pews are required — the length, and whether
;ach end of each Pew will require an aisle Pew End.
The very best way to give us this information is to send a plan of the shape
and size of the floor of the church — the architect's plan is best, if it can be spared
for a short time. We can then carefully consider the arrangement and quantity
of Pews needed, and will make up, without charge to you, a plan showing the layout
of the Pews, and will then promptly return your plan to you. The plan or sketch
should show the inside width and length of the church and the location and size of
any -pillars, posts, heating or ventilating registers or radiators; the location and
size of the entrance doors. You can then suggest how wide you think the aisles
should be, and just how many aisles. All this information is very necessary. You
can easily tell us all these things in your letter. You will be under no obligation to
us whatever.
STYLE OF PEW ENDS
The styles of Pew Ends illustrated in the following pages should enable you to
select something that will meet your ideas and be in keeping with your church, and
in asking for prices it will be helpful to us if you will state what styles you prefer.
If, however, it should happen that none of these styles are satisfactory, you can
easily inform us what is necessary by taking as a basis the one that comes nearest
your requirements and explaining what changes are to be made.
THICKNESS OF PEW ENDS
In the descriptions of the Pew Ends illustrated on the following pages, the
thickness of the ends is given as 2-ply or 3-ply. A 2-ply end is made of two
thicknesses of what is known as 1-in. lumber, and when dressed or planed or
sanded and glued together, the two plies are approximately 1 3^ in. thick. A 3-ply
end is made of three thicknesses of lumber and is 2}4 in. thick.
The thickness of the base is usually about J^ to J^ in. more than the end itself.
If an arm is used on the outside face of the end, as in the case of Styles Nos.
100-F, 106 and 805, the arm is approximately % in. in thickness.

PEW BODIES
There are a great variety of styles of Pew Bodies, by which term the Back and
Seat of the Pew is known, and we show only the four standard styles, but in addition
we give the description of other styles which are only slight modifications of some
one of these four styles, so that we are able to fully meet any requirement.
The very important points, such as the width of the back and width of the
seat, the tip or incline of the back, and other essential things, are carefully watched
by us so that we do not burden the customer with the necessity of specifying every
detail. You may safely rely on our knowledge of what is RIGHT, and that we
shall see that it is done.

FOLDING KNEELERS
The above illustration shows in detail the improved construction of our Kneelers. Note the method of dovetailing the
riser or support under the kneeling board to the end bracket. The illustration also shows the relative position of the kneelers
to the Pew ends, backs and the fronts or screens.
BACK APRON
The illustration at the left shows the Back Apron used in closing the space be-
tween the bottom of the seat and the floor in the rear Pew. This is a very necessary
part of a complete outfit of Pews. It prevents air draughts from rushing forward
under the Pews from the entrance, and gives the work a more pleasing and finished
appearance.
